Mandated Reporting

State law and Washington County Public Schools (WCPS) policy and regulation require that all WCPS employees immediately make a report to the Washington County Department of Social Services if they suspect that a student has been the victim of abuse (physical abuse, mental injury, sexual abuse, human trafficking or neglect).

Others who suspect child abuse or neglect are also encouraged to report their suspicion to the Department of Social Services at (240) 420-2222. This line is available 24 hours a day.
